Mr. Toodles posted:Nightwatch and Daywatch on Netflix are pretty fun Russian imports. I watched Daywatch first because Netflix kept recommending it to me (don't know why they recommend the sequel of something when the first is also available). Pretty good effects and they play around with the subtitles to reflect what is happening. Oh man, these movies are great. I'm a big fan of the books, and they stay pretty true to them.

weekly font posted:Man With the Iron Fists was acceptable because the theater was only my friend and I and we were super blazed. Even with that, it was still just okay. I imagine if I watched it stone sober I'd find it very bad. ah yes, the ever popular "lol only good stoned" movie goer.

That Works posted:I gave Nightwatch a chance a few years ago and just didn't 'get' it. I'm not averse to some cultural wierdness in foreign films but it was just odd. Especially the video game fight scenes. Can anyone suggest why I should give it another go or am I just better off moving on? I'd move on, the second is weirder. I enjoyed the video game fight scenes, but...it's not everyone's cup of tea.

X-Ray Pecs posted:Definitely watch Seven before it leaves. The Grey is a surprisingly good film, and is more existential drama than Taken with wolves, which is how it was marketed. If you like horror, Fright Night is a blast. Original or Remake? It's my opinion the original is the superior one.

X-Ray Pecs posted:I haven't seen the the remake, so I only pass judgement on the original, which is a lot of fun. Is the remake even on streaming? It is fun in it's absolute campiness. It was, but I believe it's gone.

I get a kick out of hatewatching movies sometimes; personally, if someone genuinely likes it, or Smith films in general, that's cool. I just thought it was hilariously bad. Housebound is awesome. I really enjoyed it.

cat doter posted:what's the editing on the fight scenes like? it's not a lot of fast cuts and shaky cam is it? that always ruins fight scenes for me No, not shaky cams. There are a few cuts, but they're in places where cuts would be warrented. Otherwise it's matt murdock just beating the ever-loving crap out of baddies. I was so worried this would turn into the crap that we got years ago. But So far it's great.

The Vosgian Beast posted:Grand Piano and Fermat's Room are pretty fun thrillers. Fermat's Room is Spanish language though, so be prepared to read subtitles. Grand Piano is the kind of movie you go in not expecting anything great but then it just blows you the gently caress out of the water. I love elijah wood's performance.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:Cinema Paradiso has always eluded me. Do you care to elaborate on why it's your favorite movie? I think it's because film has had such an impact on me growing up, so the relationship between the main character/the old projectionist really makes me happy. I also think it's nostalgia as well. I used to watch it with my grandmother and it was her favorite movie too. Also, I watched it when I was young and really loved it?

If you like the opening of Once Upon a Time In The West DEFIANTLY watch Preist there's a lot of images that mirror scenes from it. Plus it's just a great movie overall, I think.

Oh my god I thought I was the only one who noticed that. I enjoyed it as a double bill with white dog, which was, in my opinion, the better movie.
